A Fairy Out Of Place
Hi there! My names is Iro Kawa. I know, sounds weird when you say it; doesn't really flow but that's what my parents named me. I am a proud member of the wizard guild Fairy Tail! What's my magic you ask? I am a Spectrum Fire Dragon Slayer, It's a little strange actually. Basically my fire changes due to my emotions so I'm a fire mood ring. For those of you who don't know dragon slaying magic is rare. There are different types of dragon slayers for different types of dragons. There are Fire Dragon Slayers, Sky Dragon Slayers, Iron Dragon Slayers, you get the point. There are also three different generations of Dragon Slayers. The First Dragon Slayers were the original Dragon Slayers, who learned Dragon Slaying Magic from an actual Dragon. Most of the time, the Slayer's teacher was their foster parent. Those from the Second Generation have had Dragon Lacrima implanted in them, granting them the ability to use Dragon Slaying Magic. Because they were not taught by a Dragon, they are considered artificial Dragon Slayers. Third Generation Dragon Slayers have both been taught by Dragons and have had Dragon Lacrima implanted in them.
I am a Second Generation Dragon Slayer. How this happened is kinda interesting. ORIGIN STORY TIME! I was a normal baby for thirty seconds, then ninjas attacked. No, I’m kidding. That didn't happen. I was actually just the ordinary son of a farmer family. We lived on a small farm just outside of the City of Crocus. Things were pretty normal at the time, till I was 13. One night a small wizard guild called Bone Reaper attacked our farm. They were burning our crops and destroying our home. My father hid my Mother and Me in the woods and he tried to fight them off. I wanted to help him so I left my Mother's side. I had reached my Father just in time to witness a laser blast right through his chest. Most of the Guild ran away after that. I tried to help him, but I wasn't able to. In rage I chased after them in an effort to kill them. I had caught up with them, but I didn't know one of them could use levitation magic. He used his magic and threw a stone at me. It entered my stomach and got lodged in my chest somehow. I Managed to crawl back to were my Mother was, only to find that the remaining guild members found her and killed her. They were nowhere in sight so they had ran away as well.
Some of the neighbors saw the smoke and ran to our aid, but they were too late. They found me and took me to the hospital in Crocus. During my surgery they found the rock and I turned out to be a Dragon Lacrima Crystal. They couldn't move it because it had lodged itself in a spot that would kill me if it were to leave it's spot. When I recovered from my operation and was I good condition I took what I could from what was left of my house and went on a quest to hunt and destroy Bone Reaper. I spent looking for the for two years, in these two years I grew much stronger as a Dragon Slayer and became a formidable foe. But then I met a powerful wizard by the name of Erza Scarlet. I had told her about what happened to me and what I aim to do. She convinced me to let go of my anger and to use my abilities to help and protect people rather than hunt and destroy others. She told me that her guild, Fairy Tail, was like a family. She told me they wouldn't be able to replace my family, but they act as one with me. That was two years ago, I was 15 when I joined Fairy Tail. I am 17 years old now and have never looked back. I let my loss and pain guild me to be the protector for those that can't help themselves.
About half a year ago I took a job to find this group in the forest who's attacking camps, robbing travelers and their carriages in a certain area. When I got to where the group is believed to be stationed I discovered that the group was the guild that attacked me when I was younger, Bone Reaper! All my pain and hate to them came back. I fought like there was no tomorrow. I fought everyone of them, till it was only the leader left. He was by far the most powerful of the group. We clashed and we were almost evenly matched. but just before I did my most powerful attack on him he used an attack I had never seen before, He used a displacement spell on me. I was surrounded in a purple and black orb, the ground below turned black and I started sinking into it. Then everything went black.
When I awoke the leader was gone and the forest looked different. I went searching for anything familiar. Everything seemed different. The path was gone, the trees were a different kind and everything seemed darker. I was walking around for maybe two hours but I heard a powerful roar, it was a roar I had never heard before. I ran to the mysterious sound and a I found a Dragon attacking a village! It seemed smaller than the Dragons I had seen in books, but a Dragon is a Dragon. I attacked the beast with everything I had, but it wasn't able to kill it! These things are tougher than you think! It wasn't until I put my all in one final attack that I was able to defeat it. The creature fell down dead. I was surprised that there was no one there to protect the town, well actually there was but they were off at this crystalling or whatever they call it. After defeating the Dragon I had asked the villagers where I was and they told me that I was in a town called Ponyville in the country of Equestria on the planet Equis. I was on a new planet! The spell was so powerful I was sent to a new world! I was devastated, scared and I felt alone. But I decided that since I couldn't go back home I would do my best to help this one.
Ponyville's protectors or as they call themselves “The Mane Six” realized that they would always be around to keep the town safe, so they gave to job to me. Since I had nothing better to do I accepted the position. Despite me telling them not to, they gave me a house as a reward for saving the town. I guess it was because they knew I didn't have a home. In the 6 months I've been here I have made friendships with the Mane 6 and the other humans here, I have kept Ponyville safe a number of times and have been recognized as a force not to be reckoned with. Now you are up to speed with everything! I had the time to tell you all of this stuff because right now I'm sleeping and my mind was bored. Wait....what's that light?
-----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
The light from the sun shined through my eyelids and woke me up, that's what that light was. Ugh, I should have closed the curtains before I went to sleep. I grudgingly get out of bed, by that I mean intentionally roll out of bed and crawl to the curtains and close them from the floor. I'm just skilled like that! My legs aren't ready to work yet so I crawled to the bathroom. I'm not telling what I'm doing in there! That just rude! I do the normal stuff in the bathroom, that's all you're getting. I walked up to my dresser and pulled out my boxers, black samurai pants and my black and white, sleeveless hooded vest, unzipped of course. TO SHOW MY MUSCLEY ABBS! Naturally I put them on, why else would I take them out? To purposely make a mess and walk around outside in the buff? That would just make kids cry! I walk over to my closet and take out my black boots. When I put them on they end about mid-calf.
Satisfied with what I look like I grab my wallet, put it in my vest pocket and walk to my kitchen to see what I can eat for breakfast. I sleep on the second floor of my house. which was a stupid idea because now I gotta walk up and down the steps. I hate stairs. Once I get there I open my cupboard to see what I got. Nothing......what about the fridge? I turn around and open the fridge. Same as the cupboard. I spend the next five minutes looking for food. When there's nothing else to look in I give up!
“This is like the 30th verse, but it's the same as the first! Hey, That rhymed! Might as well go hungry.....again. I really need to go shopping.” I hang my head and sigh.
I head out of my house because I got things to do. If I had the choice I'd rather stay there and sleep. But I FORGOT TO CLOSE THE CURTAINS! Stupid me. Anyway, I agreed to help Dash with something. I can't remember what it is. Eh, she'll probably tell me when I get there. She asked me to meet her at the pond in the park. The walk there was pretty boring. Nothing exciting, just the occasional, “Hello” and “Morning”. I make it to the park without a hitch and it takes a few minutes to walk to the pond, but I still get there. Rainbow isn't around, I wonder where she is? Wait........I smell something. I jump to my left in time because something shot out of the tree behind me. I put my fists up and get into my fighting stance. It's only now that I notice that it's ol' Dashie herself.
“I almost got you that time, Iro!” Dash stomped the ground, “How did you know I was there? I stayed still and didn't make a noise?!”
I tap my nose, “The nose, knows. How ya been, Sugar, spice and nothing nice?”
she walks up to me and raises her fist to fist bump. I raise my hand too, but just before our fist touch I grab hers and say, “GEAR SHIFT!” I pretend her arm is a gear shifter and make speeding car noises.
“Dork.” she calls me.
“Sticks and stones, Love. You didn't answer my question yet.” I let go of her hand.
“I've been great! I've been practicing some pretty awesome moves that would impress the Wonderbolts! Wanna see?!” she asked me.
“Sure.” She shoots up into the air, but I don't know what she's doing. Looks like a bunch of flips, barrel rolls and spins to me. I wasn't paying attention because I think I saw something bright and shiny, wait.....that's the Sun. I should stop looking at that. She lands in front of me with a big smile on her face, but all I see is a purple blob in my eyes due to the Sun.
“Pretty awesome, huh?” she asked me.
“Yeah.” I agree. Just let her believe I paid attention. “So whatcha want me for?” I can kinda see her now.
“I need your help for a top secret mission!” She whispered in my ear.
“So.....pranks?” I said.
“Pranks!”
“Why not let Pinkie help you?”
“I asked her, but she said she was swamped at the bakery with orders.”
“So I'm second choice?”
“Kinda?” she told me.
“I can live with that. What are we gonna do?” I rub my hands together menacingly.

Rainbow and I are hiding behind a dumpster in an ally by a street in Ponyville. We've tied an invisible string around a bit and left the bit on the street and my partner in crime is holding the string end. No one seems to be taking the bait, but then one poor, unfortunate soul sees it aka Filthy Rich.
“Ah, a bit. Come here my little friend, I shall take good care of you.” he bends down to pick it up, but the bit moves from his reach.
He keeps bending down to pick it up but we keep pulling it. We're pulling the coin closer to the ally for a little surprise. He unwittingly steps on an X on the ground. That's my Que! I pull on a rope next to me and a big ol' bucket of water is dumped all over his head and nice suit.
“AAAAAHHHHHHHH!!!!! WHO DID THIS?! I SHALL HAVE YOUR HEAD FOR THIS!” He screams.
At this point we're just dying! Rolling on the floor laughing till we hear, “YOU!” we turn to see our victim pointing at us. “YOU DID THIS TO ME?!”
“Scatter!” I say to Rainbow. She flies up and I grab her legs. He's so loud we can hear him yelling from 200 feet in the air.
“Next one!” Rainbow yells to me.
The next few hours are of Me and Rainbow doing small pranks, like replacing Applejack's apples in her cart with foam apples, to the ones that can destroy a house if done wrong, like.....well we haven't done those yet, just the small pranks. Oh! We also put a whoopie cushion on the mayor seat during a meeting, yeah, we had to be fast for that one. The mayor farting joke was the most recent prank, but we got one more.
Dash and I are standing at the edge of town in front of a house that belongs to a bully named Fist Face with laundry detergent in our hands. He left his window open and his laundry unattended. You know what's gonna happen....
“You ready?” I ask Dash.
“Yep. But we gotta make it fast! He's still in his house and if we get caught-”
“Yeah, I know. He might beat us into a pulp.”
we sneak up to his window. It's a one story house so there's no extreme climbing. I raise the window a little more to allow passage through. I signal Dashie to go through first. She goes in and signals that it's all clear. I stealthily climb in and look all around. We're in what looks to be a study room, because there's a desk next to us, you know? We slowly open the door and look around. Clear. We tip toe our way through his house trying our best to avoid making a creak. We make it to the kitchen and I hear the washer running. The noise is coming from a door to the right of the Fridge. I look to Rainbow and point to the door and nod. We walk to the door and enter into the room.
It's just as expected. The washer and dryer on in here side by side. I turn off the washer and open it. Rainbow and I pour all of our detergent in the washer. I set it to high and turn it back on. The machine is shaking suds are already pouring out of it.
“We better run!” I say.
“I agree!” Rainbow said.
Throwing stealth out the window we open that door and book it. Along the way we passed Fist Face. I didn't have time to see what happened because all I heard was, “What?”, then a “Buck!”, and then an explosion. Dash and I dive rolled out of the window just in time. Soap shot out of the window just after I flew out. She and I are just sitting on our butts staring at our masterpiece. We look at each other in awe.
“That was AWESOME!” Dash falls back laughing her rump off! Her laughing then gets me laughing and now I'm rolling on the ground too! Fist Face bursts out of his house covered form head to toe in suds!
“Hey you, Motherbuckers!” He points to us, “I'm gonna beat you so hard, it's gonna make you're ancestors dizzy!” We can't take him seriously! I can't even see his face! This just makes our giggle loop worse!
“Prepare to die!” He runs over to me and grabs my vest bring my face to his.
“Bad idea, Compadre. SPECTRUM DRAGON-” The look of terror in his face * GASP * priceless, “ROAR!” Colored fire shot out of my mouth and hit this dude in the face. I didn't hit him really hard, but hard enough to make him flew back, and that's just what happened. He got shot through his wall and right back into the sea of suds.
“Let's get out of here before he gets back!” I pull Rainbow up and bolt outa there like a bat out of hell. I don't know how far we ran, but when we stopped we were in front of Town Hall.
“Well, that was fun!” I said.
“Yeah it was!”, Rainbow fist bumped me, “We gotta do this again sometime!”
“Yep! I gotta jet. Got to buy some food. I haven't eaten all day.” I said.
“You do that. I got some stuff to do at my place. See ya around, man!”
“See ya, Rainbow Crash.” She just rolled her eyes at me and took off, leaving me all by my lonesome self.
“TIME TO GET SOME FOOD! YEAH!” Pumped, I run to the food market.
I stopped at the food market, and this is the most exciting yet scariest part. Having to choose what to buy! I wander through the market looking at all the selections waiting for something to strike my fancy. I see apples, pears, oranges, vegetables I don't want to mention, I mean-come on, vegetables. We're getting off subject though. Basically, there's a crap ton of food and I don't know what to get. I decide to stay in my usual food selection so I get some fruits, no veggies, some milk, cereal and some candy. Not very exciting. The food isn't too heavy, so I make it back to my house without a problem. I drop my food in the kitchen and make myself some cereal. I know what you're thinking, “But Iro! You can't have cereal for dinner!”, yes I can! You know why? Because it's my house and I get to do what I want! Anyway, I eat my cereal, do this dishes, clean the place up, all the boring grown up stuff.
By the time I'm done with everything it's late at night. I'm tired and I like dreaming, eh, I'll go to bed. I start to walk to my room, but stop at the stairs. Ugh, I hate stairs. I must be brave! I must be Natsu! “I'm all fired up! Yeah, never saying that again.” I run up the stairs to show them who's boss! Once I make it up I don't feel very heroic, but a small victory is still a victory! I walk into my room and plop on my bed. It feels gooooooooood.
Crap, I gotta brush my teeth. I once again intentionally fall on the floor and crawl to the bathroom. I pull myself up once I get to the sink. Grab the toothbrush, put the paste on it and go to town on these suckers! When I'm done I spit and rinse. I look at myself in the mirror. I stare at my spikey brown hair. Should I get my hair cut? Nah! I like my spikey hair! I can go to bed now! Yay! I walk to my bed, take off the boots and vest, get under the covers and let blissful sleep take hold of me.
